PREFACE.

THE author is obliged to confess that one object in publishing this book is to circulate "Scandal." But a higher, holier motive, paramount to all selfish ends, has prompted the work,—even a desire to embody "Scandal," and set it before the world as it is, the most hideous of all evils; also, to place in contrast its great conqueror, Truth, the most beautiful of all good.

To upraise the undeservedly fallen, and make the sitters upon stolen thrones to feel their false position, constitute a theme for inspiration. If the author has failed, the fault is not with the theme, but with her utter inability to compel tame language to express free thoughts.
